Amy McColl

This is the prettiest use of resign and acrylic I've seen in a while. Amy McColl uses botanical forms as her inspiration, also using colour and light from her photography to influence her creations. She describes her work as bold and bright using hard surfaces but also retaining a softer femininity at the same time. I think this is a perfect description, her pieces do look hard yet soft at the same time.

I'd previously seen Buddug Wyn Humphreys work through Style Bubble and The Cherry Blossom Girl but had never ventured on to her website. But I am so happy I did because her work is absolutely wonderful! From the delicate little brooches to the fantastic bird headwear, everything on the site is a delight to look at.  Hailing from North Wales, she's inspired by the nature and scenery of her home background and explores matching everyday materials with precious ones.  I definitely think she's one to watch...her work is so wonderful I look forward to seeing more of it!

Emma Ferguson

I've been wanting to experiment with cross stitch and embroidery for ages now and have been spurred on by the great work of Emma Ferguson. Not only are her hand embroidered illsutrations fantastic but equally so are her badges and necklaces.

Inspired by my veggie doodles how about a broccoli necklace?

How amazing are these Frau de Ringe designs?

I think the cherub is my favourite

Oh dear...I haven't disappeared, unfortunately I've been stuck doodling for what seems like forever. So I'm making a comeback here (how many times have I said that now?!) from next week I'm aiming to post at least a couple of times per week. If I don't live up to this please email me and harass me...sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind!

Continuing the natural theme of the earlier post, I am completely blown away by everything by Monique Pean. Not only is her jewellery unbelievably beautiful but it's also doing a little good for the world as she "creates a sustainable fine jewellery enterprise isnpired by indigenous cultures, while remaining socially and environmentally conscious."

Dream rings...mmm

On the cute side of kitsch...

I think these Disney Couture pieces fall under the same category as the Juicy charms I posted about a while ago. Kitsch...but just on the right side of kitsch!

I'm a sucker for wooden and metal jewellery and when you add laser cut pieces to the equation I'm pretty much sold!
